Unless we're talking to the 99% of humanity who give us funny looks for being pedantic about the 'unix-like' OS we happen to be supporting this month. Or we're sending our out our "HR resume" (as opposed to our "Technical Manager" resume). It's damned annoying to have an HR drone assume you can't do the job because they are filling for "Solaris 8" and you've got on your reusme "SunOS 2.8, Linux, AIX, BSD etc." <grumble> -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net -- Author: Brian Dunbar INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com San Diego, California -- Mailing list and web hosting services --------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
